An Omce for Matthews.

WASHINGTON, March 2-It j. stgiven

night that Jamces G. Matthe hom
the Senate recently rejected Ois-
trict Recorder of Deeds, will soon be
appointed Register of the Treasury.
The position is at present filled by
General w. S. Rosecrans. 1t is said
to be the Presidents intention to place
Gen. Rosecrans at the head OF the Ge-
odetic and Coast Survey. 1t is an Of
flee for which his professional train
ing well fits him and one that would
suit him better than the Treasury reg
istership. General Rosecrans when
spoken with upon the subject to-day
said that he knew nothing about it,
but that the President had been advis-
ed that the Coast Survey superinten-
dencywould be very agreeable to him.
If that programme should be carried
out and Mr.. Matthews installed as
General Rosecrans' successor he will
be the second colored man to fill the
position within the past three years,
the other being ex-senator Bruce, of
Mississippi. The Office is worth $4,50O
a year.

course of the erratic Riddleberger is
likely to become even more interest

Dumbness Cured by HypnO-
tisIn.

st. James's Gazette.
Hypnotism has been employed with
considerable success in Paris for some
time past by Charcot and others in
the treatment OF hysterical disorders
but case just related by NJ. Clovis
Hughes in the France is perhaps the
most successful example of its appli-
cation so far recorded. A young lady
OF 20 was attacked six months ago
with nervous ailment which COM
pletely deprived her of the use of her
voice. Electricity was tried and with
a certain amount of success at first,
but it lost its effect after a time, and
it was abandoned in despair.
AS last resource her friends applied
to DIR. Berillon, the hypnotic special
ist, and after consultation with
Charcot he decided to undertake the
case. After having brought on the
mesmeric trance by the usual means,
ne suggested" to the patient to say "I
am 20" as soon as she awoke. A min
ute afterward she opened her eyes,
and at once uttered the words without
the least trace of an effort; but there
her power Of articulation ended. The
next day the suggestion was that she
should converse with the Doctor, and
this she did with ease, though she
could not exchange single remark
with anyone else present. Finally, at
the third seance, DR.. Berillon ordered
her to speak whenever and with
whomsoever she pleased thencefor-
ward. Since that time she has been
able to use her tongue freely, and her
voice is as clear and distinct as it was
before the attack.

Roscoe COnklins,.

Roscoe Conkling being asked to
write something for a journal publish.
ed in the interests Of hospital fair al
Syracuse, wrote the following eloquent
sentiment
How long they live who create wise
and lasting humanities!
Poor Nellie Gwynnl A bastard born
In a coal yard-an orange girl in a
theater-the mistress of an actor and
afterwards of a king. She became
the mother OF a noble house and the
founder of one of the holiest charities
that ever blessed the human race.
History and its readers have had
sneers for her and will have more.
The withered witchery of her life may
never be felt to the mercy of oblivion.
But she will long be gratefully remem-
hered by myriads scathed by the suns
and the wars of the climes where the
drums of England beat.
Had not "the clouded gray of the
circumstance" mildewed her birth and
life and disclosed her feet of clay, the
majesty OF single action for human
ity would have lifted all her character
and personality to the skies, and fixed
her there as a sun-bright glory of the
race.
Monuments made on purpose to be
only monuments are not apt to stand.
Time outlives the falling buildings
into dead efigies, and soon makes ha-
voc where living hands no longer grap-
pie with decay.
But memorials which shelter the
sick and the poor do not perish if well
founded. They grow strong, because
the endless procession cares for them
as it passes-cares aelfshly and un.
selfshly, too,
So, whether regarded only practical
ly or in more exalted aspects, well may
we strive to help build something not
to fall or stand idle, but to last and
bless those who will thankfully pre-
serve and perpetuate it.

Hints 10 Employees.

There is only one spirit that achiev-
es a great success, The man who seeks
only how to make himself most use
ful, whose aid is to render himself in
dispensable to his employer, whose
whole being is animated with the
purpose to ELL the largest possible
place in the walk assigned to him, has
in the exhibition OF that spirit the
guarantee OF success. He commands
tie situation, and shall walk in the
light OF prosperity all his days. On
the other hand, the man who accents
the unwholesome advice of the dema-
gogue and seeks only how little he
may do, and how easy he may render
his place and not lose his employment
altogether, is unfit for service. AS
soon as there is a Eupernumerary on
the list, he becomes disengaged as
least valuable to his employer. The
man who is afraid Of doing too much
is near of kin to him who seeks to do
nothing, and was begot in the same
family. They are neither of them in
the remotest degree relation to the
man whose willingness to do every
thing possible to his touch places him
at the head of the active list.-Scien-
tifc american.

A party of young folks in Pleasant
Valley, Va, went to the house of q
newly married pair to "bell" them, as
the custom is there. Awakened by the
Jingling of many bells the bride and
groom arose and entered into the fun

its place and fell, striking the bride on
the head and fraeturing her skull.
